Brake Calipers and pads burnt on toad

Make sure that there is no pressure on the pedal when not activated. Need some clearance. It is recommended to pump the pedal a few times while setting up to bleed out power vacuum. If vehicle is started after set up it will again need to have vacuum bled out by pumping pedal.

Sounds as if you have rear drum brakes and front disk.

I use a bungee cord to strap Brake Buddy to seat frame to keep it from moving around during travel...especially on rough roads.

I use the same method for my Silverado. It had a tendency to slid forward and could have applied pressure to the brakes without the controller activating the cylinder. I found it stayed in place better if I removed the floor mat, but that allowed some wear on the carpet, ergo the bungee cord.

From my experience, if the pads and calipers are gone and showing signs of overheating I would replace the rotors also. Chance of them not being warped are slim at best.
